Twenty-Five years, and his law practice

Oh, School Marin!
Thou who teaches the young idea
How to scoot, and spankest the erstwhile
Festive small boy with hand that taketh th,
trick
Who also lameth him with hickory switch,
And crowneth him by laying the weight
Of a ruler upon his shoulders,
Oh!
Thou art a daisy;
Thou makest him the national emblem
Red, white, and blue
Thou furnisheth the stripes,
And he seeth the stars.
Oh, School Marin
We couldn't do without thee,
And we don't want to try
Thou art lovely and accomplished
Above all women, and if thou art
Not married, it is because thou art
Too smart to be caught that way
All school marms are women,
But all women are not school marms,
And. angels, pedagogic,
That's where thou hast the bulge on thy sisters
Oh, School Marin!
Thou msyest not get much pay here below,
But cheap education is q national speciality,
And thou will get thy reward in heaven;
The ogly drawback being that thou stayest there
~nen tnou goest after it, and we,
Who remain here below for our reward;
Miss you like thunder.

Ofce hours from a. m. to p. M!

long, and was lined with scarlet silk,
tiny gold buttons fastening the straps oi
dark green. This article of wearing ap-
parel was to cost the black and tan's
mistress just SIS, and was counted very
reasonable at that price. Another coat
made for large pug was of fawn cloth,
embroidered in pale blue silk, and had
tiny pockets which were for his hand
kerchief and candies. The reporter was
shown little smoking caps with tassels,
which he was assured were worn by
many dogs at home, curious little blan-
ket of plush and velvet, cloth and silk
richly wrought in silk, and even little
white silk nightcaps, which are worn by
delicate pet dogs during cold weather.
But the most unique articles were lit
tie overshoes. Yes, real overshoes made
to fit the foot and worn on muddy days
by dogs of high degree. These were
nicely lined with downy cloth, and held
about the ankle by little elastic bands,
and cost from 50 cents to So pair.
Dog collars are SO varied nowadays
that it is difficult for one to make a
choice. For mastiffs and st. Bernards,
collies and Newfoundlands, the large
leather straps covered with brass or sill
yer nails, and fastening by silver
buckle, are the most fashionable. These
cost anywhere from 81 up, but when a
silver paddock or little silver flask or
barrel is added they are much more ex-
pensive. Then there are the little linked
silver and gold collarettes for the small
dogs, bands of plush and velvet and
ones of gold set with precious stones.
About dozen dogs in town possess
these latter kind, and are, of course,
very vain of them. Silver bangles for
black poodles have been in vogue for
three of four years, but most dogs do
not appreciate them.
Regular dog baskets of willow ware
are sold in all the large furniture and
fancy stores, and are generally furnished
with bright colored mat of sheepskin.
These cost from 81 to $40, and when
ornamented with bright bow of ribbon
make a pretty piece of furniture fol
room.
What with doctors bills, medicine,
expensive clothing and feeding, it takes
large amount to keep pet dog. Very
few women who own one spend less than
SIoo year on them, and the majority
many times that amount.

A HumOrist ON Bright's Disease
Bill Nye IN the Boston Globe.

John Bright was born IN 1871. He
made tour of the Holy Land at the
age of twenty-four, but did not decide
to purchase it, owing to the existence
of a flaw in the title. On his return
from the Orient he discovered that what
was most needed both in Europe and
America was good, reliable disease for
the use of the better classes. The poor
and humble were we'll supplied, but the
rich, the aristocratic and patrician states
men, corned heads and porkists of the
two lands languished for good reliable
disease that poor people could not OBJ
tain. So he began to sit up nights and
perfect Bright's disease. He gained the
prize at the Paris Exposition and hon
orable mention at the great Centennial
celebration at Philadelphia 'for meritori-
Gus and effective disease for the better
classes Since that time he has been
gratified to notice that the very best
people, both in his own land and in
this, are handling Bright's disease, II
has been kept out of the reach OF the
poor, and to die from this ailment has
been regarded as a proud distinction.

Some Everyday SuperstitiOns.
Christian Advocate.

Christian Advocate.
The most stubborn of all errors, says
a recent writer, are those which have
been acquired by sort OF inheritance,
which have passed dogmatically from
father to son, or from mother to daugh-
ter. To illustrate: The idea that the
weather changes with the moon, that
the wind keeps off the rain,' are super
stitions pure and simple, utterly without
foundation in fact, and promulgated
without any examination of evidence,
yet none the less firmly held by many.
The faith in the magical significance
of various everyday happenings extends
from away beyond the misty horizon of
the past to the busy present midday of
knowledge and progress.
Household superstitions cluster around
the infants cradle; they meet us in
middle life, and at the foot of the hill
of old age they still attend us with their
unwise croakings. So we are told that:
The child that was born on the Sabbath-day
Is blithe and bonny, and good and gay;
Mondays child is fair of face,
Tuesdays child is full of grace;
Wednesdays child is merry and glad;
Thursdays child is sour and sad;
Fridays child is loving and giving;
And Saturdays child must work for living.
And in Scandinavian countries they be-
lieve that those who first see the light
in March are born wise.
Throughout the South and South
western States various curious supersti-
tions are rife among the poorer classes
of whites and the negroes. Thus, to
see snake in winter means much trou-
BILE to the beholder. Sharks swimming
near the seashore is bad sign, and in
dicates coming shipwreck. For gun
to hang fire means sudden death, and
for usually tractable horse to balk at
the foot of a hill is good omen.
Such minor mishaps as tipping over
the ink or the salt, dropping the knife
and fork, accidentally setting a knife
edge uppermost, or the cat performing
her ablutions, are well-high universally
adiudged to be indicative of ill-luck,
quarrelling, or impending visits. The
Greeks will not pass pie from one to
another; it is sure to provoke quarrel.
Likewise olive.oil is looked upon in the
same light as salt with us: to spill it is
most unlucky.
In short, it would seem that nothing
is too absurd or baseless to become the
subject of a popular delusion. In the
rural districts of England it was mat
ter of faith for centuries 'that if man
married woman, the woman being in
debt, provided her bridal dress was only
smock, the husband was not liable for
the money his wife owed Another
fancy was that 'it was penal to use a
cross-bow or carry dark lantern within
five miles of London, arising possibly
from the survival of some statutes OF
Henry VII. in regard to the use of cross
bows, and from Guy Fawkes' dark Ian
tern in the Gunpowder.
